SotesBornalichtie Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 Sorry to see Liam Henderson leave but it looks like a good move for him. He should be playing regular first team football and I think Falkirk will be pushing for promotion next season. Think last season may have been a one off for us unless the manager can find another Joel Nouble. Full time teams will be strengthened by having the pick of Premiership players who have been released and can't find another Premiership club. I expect Cove Rangers to do well and with Ian Murray as manger I think Raith Rovers will as well. Will Chris Hamilton be with us next season? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We challenged for the title course it was a one off But we’ve got the spine of a decent starting 11 at this level. You’ve just mentioned teams having the pick of the released Premiership players. They’re guys like Pigniatello and O’Connor who Morton have signed. Pigniatello isn’t good enough to play for us and O’Connor absolutely hopeless in games we played against QotS. These are the guys these clubs we will be battling with are picking up. I think Dundee will win league and be the best team. Outside of that Inverness, Partick look decent again. Raith maybe be in that bracket too and it’ll be anyone’s guess after that. Imagine ourselves, Morton, Hamilton, Ayr, QP and Cove will occupy positions 5-10 in some order with Gaston RB Little ToB Hammy Stewart Low CM LM McKenna ST We are in a solid position starting 11 wise. Not got any fear about us defensively with the guys we’ve got. 18 clean sheets last year and for me the 2 best centre halves in the league Its goals and creativity that will be the issue, only Bobby and Nicky as proper technical creative players in that squad. It’s why I was disappointed we re signed both LD and Hilson as we really need more in terms of goals and creativity uptop. I would’ve kept one and that’s another debate but 2 guys in attacking positions who really do not look like contributing to the above is a strange one for me 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gayfield Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 Keaghan Jacobs Arbroath FC are delighted to announce that midfielder Keaghan Jacobs has agreed terms to sign for Arbroath next season. Keaghan, 32, is a product of Livingston’s youth teams and has become a legend at Livingston where he was loved by all of their fans, and has played in every level of the Scottish League for the Lions. From scoring on his first team Livingston debut in November 2007, Keaghan has also a special record as he has a set of younger triplet brothers and all 4 brothers played together for Livingston against Albion Rovers in 2010. Since then Keaghan has become the club's current appearance holder with 309 games. Keaghan moved to his native South Africa for a season in 2015 with Bidvest Wits but returned to Livingston the following season. In January Keaghan signed on loan for Falkirk and this week announced that he was leaving Livingston. Arbroath Manager Dick Campbell has moved fast to sign Keaghan who is best known for adding steel and style to a midfield and helps driving his team forward. This is another excellent signing for Arbroath and we are sure all our fans will give him a very warm welcome. Welcome Keaghan!

ATLIS Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 If he's fit and back to his best he's some signing. Sadly it looks like injuries have fucked him though - but if anyone can get the best out of him it's Dick Campbell. For us he grew into the mould of a whole hearted CM. Big meaty tackles and dominating the middle of the park. Absolutely love the guy so I hope this turns into a good move for him and can squeeze a bit more joy out the end of his career. His stint at Falkirk is the only football he's played for almost three years. If he's able to get over that injury and get into the rhythm of regular football he should be incredible in an Arbroath side under Campbell. Can't let him go elsewhere without giving you this belter as well: 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each season the players are in the league the better they will become unlike most teams having massive changes in their squad 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were hardly out of sight at Christmas and only lost the league but 2 points ( and a better goal difference ). That’s no fluke 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
